Hi,

I followed these instructions to add an IP address to a running vserver:

----------------------------------------------------------------
This is done from the host server:

    * add the ip on the host, for example

ip addr add 194.169.123.23/24 dev eth0 

    * add the ip to the guest's network context (a guests NID is the
      same as the XID {context ID})

naddress --add --nid <nid> --ip 194.169.123.23/24 

----------------------------------------------------------------

So step one:

# ip addr add 203.24.54.5/32 dev eth0

And then step two:

# vserver-stat
CTX   PROC    VSZ    RSS  userTIME   sysTIME    UPTIME NAME
0       76 402.9M 100.3M   2d17h47   1d13h29 179d18h32 root server

# naddress --add --nid 49157 --ip 203.24.54.5/32
Adding 203.24.54.5naddress: vc_net_add(): No such process

Any ideas what is going wrong here?
